M16 Camera Manual: Operating The Camera
3 OPERATING THE CAMERA
3.1 ManualandAutomaticOperation–Overview
MOBOTIX cameras do not require any extra soware. Thus, you can set up and operate the
MOBOTIX camera using a JavaScript-enabled browser on all common operating systems
(such as Windows, Linux, Macintosh, etc.). As an alternative, you can also use the MOBOTIX
application MxManagementCenter. Follow these steps to set up the camera:
1. Connect the camera to the network.
Power is supplied directly via the Ethernet cable (see Section 2.7, «Network and
Power Connection»)
2.
Establish a connection to the camera and adjust the network settings, if required.
By factory default, MOBOTIX cameras are booting as DHCP client with an additional
xed IP address in the 10.x.x.x range (e.g., 10.16.0.128). Local computer net
-
works usually have IP addresses in the 172 or 192 ranges. Depending on whether a
DHCP server is present on the local network (e.g., a DSL router) or if the network has
been set up to use xed IP addresses, there are several possibilities for establishing
a connection to the camera and to change its network parameters:
• Network with DHCP server
– Using a browser:
If you know the IP address that the DHCP server assigned to the camera, simply
enter that address in the browser address bar to directly connect to the camera
(see Section 3.2.1, «Manually Setting Up the Network Parameters in a Browser»).
– Using MxManagementCenter:
With MxManagementCenter, you can show and integrate the camera without
having to know its current IP address (see Section 3.2.3, «First Images and
Network Parameter Conguration in MxMC»).
• Network with xed IP addresses
In order to access the camera, it must have an IP address within the range of
the local network. To set the camera’s network parameters, you can use one of
these methods:
– Manually using a browser:
First, you need to change the network parameters of your computer (see
Section 3.2.1, «Manually Setting Up the Network Parameters in a Browser»
and following …).
